“It surprises me that this is proposed by Mr. Hamáček, who was on all the decisions of the government, on all advice for health risk. If the opposition suggested it, I understand that,” Babiš said. Nor does he expect the commission to reach any conclusions. “Parliamentary commissions have never investigated anything, it is pure politics and it will just be politically abused,” he said.

“If someone is to investigate, it will be investigated by the authorities that are competent to do so,” the prime minister said. Now, according to him, this is not the time to find out who neglected something. “At the moment, we should talk more about overcoming the pandemic together than looking for some culprits,” he said.
